... like the other day when Oleg called to my attention some poorly phrased comment from my part about stepsons.
Perhaps this was one of those cases as the person in question seemed inclined to "defend" himself a bit, I didn't take it as kidding around (perhaps MY mistake), as I recall, another person popped in on the thread and said, "That was not very friendly". Also, you seemed to be irritated over this person's excitement about getting a new PC.

So, as you said above, perhaps you didn't phrase it as well as it should have been if it was intended to be kidding around.
